Gangnam Style: Do Korean Android Manufacturers Have A Clue on How to Match Apple?

Do the Korean handset manufacturers (Samsung, LG, etc.) have any idea how to create a phone the masses can get excited about? Sure, you can outspec the iPhone for the geeks, and include an overlay and call it "nature" to make Asian school girls giggle.

But what about creating a solid, easy phone that a 20, 30, or 40-something working mom or dad who are not really into electronics can use without having to worry about reboots, auto-shutoffs, bloatware, etc.?

Where have you been? Samsung has been beating Apple soundly with its Galaxy S2 and S3 phones. The TV advertisements for these products have gone viral on the web because of the humorous lampooning of the Apple faithful, and make very good points about how the Android products beat the notmePhone in many areas.

FYI there are still plenty of dumb phones available for people who only want a mobile phone.
